Fridays

Yesterday was Friday. Fridays are almost always my second favorite day of the week. I don't work, I clean our apartment, I go downtown to do some things for Loren, I usually have one coffee date, and then I prep breakfast for dinner for 4-12 people that I invited over to have brenner with the Brenners! We eat, we talk, we laugh, we pray. It's a good ole time of fellowship and prayer. All day building up to this time, I am in deep prayer connecting with my God. I pray for each person I invited. I pray a lot for my husband.
I am more and more convinced that the more I pray on behalf of other people, the more love is being built and engraved deep into my heart for those people. Each Friday I am more & more jazzed to see each person walk thru our front door. The joy that is overwhelming me lunges out of my small body before I can help it. It's overflowing.

As we meet each week, we grow closer. Like a family. It reminds me of the church in Acts 2. Sharing meals and possessions with each other. Praying together. It's unique and so real.

I am so in love with Jesus.
